5.6.6 CONFIGURATIONS
A single DCS 400R spare system can be configured for different applications and sizes.
A configuration is defined through the setting of the “SETUP” DIP-switches 4 – 6. Three different basic
configurations as to be described in the following chapters are available.
The setting of the switches 1 – 3 defines the number of power amps assigned to a single spare amp.
4 power amps / 1 spare amp (4/1)
8 power amps / 1 spare amp (8/1)
12 power amps / 1 spare amp (12/1)
16 power amps / 1 spare amp (16/1)
20 power amps / 1 spare amp (20/1)
24 power amps / 1 spare amp (24/1)
28 power amps / 1 spare amp (28/1)
Max. amount of power amps / 1 spare amp
(defined by the actually existing number of DCS 422R / DCS 423R cards)
Configuring several spare systems
Type and number of modules needed for a single, individually operating spare system is defined by the
combination of configuration and size. Multiple corresponding modules have to be installed when setting up
several identically configured spare systems. Consequently, four identical spare systems for example, need four-
times the amount of DCS 422R / 423R modules. It is possible to configure up to eight identical spare systems this
way.
The DCS 421R control module also provides the possibility to use mixed configurations. Please contact our
technical support if your interested in further details.
